The Camels beat the Wolverines 6-3 to extend their win streak to 11 matches heading into the Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) Eastern Championship, which begins Friday at the University of Michigan.

The Camels, ranked No. 8 in Division III, will take on Brown University at The University of Michigan in Ann Arbor at 2 p.m. on April 26. The winner of the Eastern Championship gets an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament.
